Non-synthetic or synthetic 2-stroke oil?
I bought a Sohn oil metering pump adaptor and I am getting ready to install it.
I am not sure what type of 2-stroke oil I should be feeding the apex seals and I am curious to know what everyone is running. Thanks!!! |
It does not matter, I will say most 2 stroke oil is fine for the application. Synthetic or not.
I use Idemitsu right now, for hmm maybe almost a year. its a Synthetic Blend. I used some Full Synthetic stuff before, runs great :) but I pick Idemitsu over the others because they have more experience in Rotary. |
Damn, there are no Idemitsu dealers in Canada I can order from.
I thoguht synthetic oil was bad for the apex seals. |
old synthetics are, I haven't seen an 13B-MSP engine die o synthetic engine oil yet,
I use idemitsu also |

I thoguht synthetic oil was bad for the apex seals. Where ? You Thought ? Most Bad stuff came from Gas, not engine oil. not to mention Group IV/V oils are more *purify* than the Non-Synthetic Group II oil Doesnt matter, I dont want to start another debate. You can use whatever you want. I use Royal Purple for engine, and Idemitsu for Premix. |
I dont plan to pre-mix.
I will have a resevoir of 2stroke oil feeding the oil metering pump directly. |

Ok I spent a good hour reading about this issue.
Idemitsu Rotary Premix and Amsoil Saber Pro seem to be the cat friendly oils to use. :) |
Can anyone link me a dealer who sells Idemitsu oils? I can't find one!
Also, is it true that the Sohn adapter is good for supercharged rotaries but not for the standard renesis? I am planning to put one in my Rx-8 but I get contrastating comments. Thanks |
ITs good for any applications.
You're in Italy? You have to find out if theres a local dealer there it will be crazy expensive if u want to ship it from USA to Italy, u better off just buy any 2 stroke oil at ur local dealer |
